Not that it's a big deal, really - I basically never use earbuds unless I'm traveling, and when I am traveling I use shure noise-eliminating earpieces. But it used to gall me that those regular earbuds just didn't even come close to staying in my ears. They were useless.

Sound quality aside, one of the most common complaints about Apple’s previous earbuds was that they didn’t stay in listeners’ ears well. That flaw was annoying for the wearer, but it also meant that the earbuds were often positioned in a way that produced poor sound quality. The new design, at least in my ears, offers a much more secure and comfortable fit. The EarPods didn’t fall out due to pesky things like gravity during normal use (although a sharp pull on the cable will dislodge an earpiece). However, the EarPods’ fit is still far from perfect, as I discovered when I used them during a workout. Within a minute or two, the right earpiece would work its way out of my ear. Everyone’s ears are different, and your mileage may be better or worse than mine, but within about five minutes, I switched back to my trusty Koss KSC–75 for the rest of the workout. Still, I found the fit of the EarPods was worlds better than that of the old Apple earbuds, and I think that will be the case for most listeners.

You didn't change your # did you? I mean, I should be able to send from my Android, no?

no change. But coming from an android phone means one of us will have to pay for that. iMessage is free. And better (i've probably sent hundreds of photos and videos to friends and family over the course of the year)
